Question

resource instances of the same type, being shared by processes maz, is maximum resource needs of Pi, where 2 mar, S m n. Assume that a process can request one resource at a time during execution. Answer 7. (20 pts) Consider a system of m P, P Pa where m 22. Suppose the following questions about deadlock among the various processes A: Suppose m 5 printers and n 2 processes in a system, with mazi 3 and mar2 4. Identify the scenario(s) of allocating printers to Pi and P2 that is unsafe (i.e., can possibly lead to deadlocks) Show, for the most general case, that the boundary condition on the maximum resource needs of P, P., P, such that the system can avoid deadlocks may be stated as mar,S B: Ti (m+n-1). Hint: Start with a scenario of resource allocations where each Pi has acquired all but one of its maximum resource needs mazi (i.e., each Pi will need just one more resource to complete).
